He's doing what will help evangelicals as much as he can. Appointing SCOTUS justices that agree with them, for instance.

The SCOTUS judges he's been appointing are pretty much just general conservative judges that many more conservative groups agree with. He is a resident elected on a conservative ballot after all. It's not just evangelicals in general.
